Glad to see the American spirit still lives (?)
They had the same problem back in 1776, seems there will be always those practical people who will continue to choose to suffer rather than push for change.
"mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed."
Declaration of Independance, 1776.
But then that is part of the nature of what is wrong with an income tax, so we should not be surprised as such reactions.
| I discussed the importance of abolishing the income tax because of its tendency to form a habit of servility in the souls of a people that accepts it. Servility of soul is bad not only in itself, it is also an open door through which will soon walk the abuses of ambitious government power. Leaders who find themselves with governmental power over a servile people will be quick to conclude that such a people exist to serve them. |
It is not without reason the income tax is the choosen vehicle for those who would expand the power of government over the freedom of the people.
I agree, nice post.
